Expelled from RJD, Tej Pratap Yadav on Saturday announced the he will contest the upcoming Bihar election from Mahua as an independent candidate.
Tej Pratap was expelled from the party by his father and chief Lalu Prasad Yadav last month after making public his 12-year long relationship in a social media post, only to later claim that his account was hacked. Lalu Yadav also disowned his elder son from the family.
"We will contest the election from Mahua; there are many opponents, they have started to feel the itch," he said.
Tej Pratap was also confident that Nitish Kumar would not return as the chief minister of Bihar. "Team Tej Pratap Yadav is a platform to reach the people... This time, Uncle (Nitish Kumar) will not become the Chief Minister. Whoever's government is formed, if they talk about youth, employment, education, and health, Tej Pratap Yadav will stand with them with full strength," he said.
He had earlier alleged that a few people from RJD had conspired to remove him out of the party, adding that he would reveal the names of those people.
"I'm not the one to get scared...I will face the situation...I will reveal the names of those 4-5 people who have done this to me. The people of Bihar have seen how I have been thrown out of the party due to a few people in the RJD. The public knows my nature. Taking advantage of my nature, some 4-5 people have done this. Now, I will go among the public to seek justice," he had said.
